Renovating Bathroom Cabinets: $25 Vanity to a $500 Vanity DIY

What happens here

The vanity is placed on stir sticks to elevate it off the floor, preventing any paint from sticking to the ground. The painter then vacuums the vanity thoroughly and uses a brush to remove any lingering dust or debris. Finally, he puts on a respirator and gloves. He mentions the importance of wearing gloves when working with these products as they can stick to skin and be difficult to wash off. He uses an inspection light to check the surface for readiness before spraying.

Goal: Ensure the vanity surface is clean, elevated, and ready for paint application.
